I was inspired to use the saying 'Count your blessings' and this picture says it all for me. The little moments every day, when my little girl is laughing, or when we cuddle, or spending time together, going outdoors, enjoying the moment...That is what 'Count your blessings' mean to me....

My paper choice was 7 Dots Studio Thoughts Keeper no 6 and Yuletide Mistletoo. I also used Yuletide Elements 6 x 12 die cuts, tags 12 x 12, Verano Azul word stickers, Lost & Found Mask Wonky halftone and UmWow mask Handwriting. I used the frame from Dusty attic to frame my picture, and I used the whole paper as a frame. I edged the sides with a paper distress tool and stamped with clear stamp 'messy' so I got a 12 x 12 frame for the whole page.

I also won the challenge at Words & Paintery this August! I am so overwelmed, never could have imagined to win this challenge, there were so many gorgeous entries! Thank you Words & paintery! And offcourse a big thank to the sponsor 7 Dots Studio for the amazing prize! So happy!

The moodboard from Scrap around the world - Challenge September 2015 is simply gorgeous. I immediately got inspiration, loving the beautiful soft pink and brown colors. I love old books, and their color made me think of walnut ink...Lydie Denis you've created such a beautiful moodboard!

My canvas is 12 x 12 inch, and I was inspired to use the color palette from the moodboard: white, soft brown, dark brown and a touch of pink (from the rose)

I was also inspired to use the picture from the rose, to make a rose-patterned background.
